Chapter Twenty-Eight: Order a Small Medicine Jar

Zhu Hongyu wanted to find a small medicine jar containing pills, this kind of bottle was uncommon, Zhu Hongyu wandered aimlessly on Suzaku Street, and finally found a porcelain shop to deal with the tail goods, as if she was not in business.

Zhu Hongyu walked in, the pottery and porcelain all over the ground were dazzling, but they were all covered with dust, and the shop looked much older. When someone came to see Zhu Hongyu coming in, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Niko, what do you want?"

Zhu Hongyu looked at the person in front of her, and suddenly felt very familiar, but after thinking about it for a long time, she still didn't remember that it should be a villager from Peach Blossom Village.

"I see that you are familiar, are you from Peach Blossom Village!"

The boss's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes, yes, I am a member of the Zhou family in Peach Blossom Village, and I moved out of the village three years ago to do business." ”

Zhu Hongyu sighed, this boss is also pitiful. After a year of hard work, the plague began.

"I am the Zhu family, and my father is Zhu Yinciao."

"Oh!" Boss Zhou was very happy as if he remembered something, "Is your father's leg better?" ”

Zhu Hongyu looked at Boss Zhou in embarrassment and said, "My father has already passed away." ”

"Ah, when did it happen?"

Zhu Hongyu lowered her head and recalled carefully.

"At the end of March this year, I got sick with my mother. I can only go to the city to do some business, and it is difficult for my sister and brother to support. ”

The boss sighed, "Girl, what do you want?" ”

"Boss, I'd like to get you some small clay pots with lids. To be clean, is there such a jar? ”

The boss listened to Zhu Hongyu's familiar device, so he rummaged through a pile of porcelain, and finally found a clay pot similar to Zhu Hongyu's description. After checking it, Zhu Hongyu nodded with satisfaction.

This is the clay pot she wants.

"How much?"

Boss Zhou hurriedly waved his hand, asking for money as if he was asking for his life.

"Take it, how much is it worth?"

"I'm going to ...... A thousand. Zhu Hongyu showed a smile and stunned the boss, a thousand?

"Girl, what kind of business are you doing? If it's a small business, you can't get into so much! ”

Zhu Hongyu secretly said that her business is a life-saving business, and it is not a small business.

"Boss give me a price?"

"This clay pot is four cents a piece for me to sell, if you want to order so much, it will cost two cents to buy it cheaply."

Zhu Hongyu looked at the clay pot, and it was indeed worth the price. The boss really didn't cheat her. If you use the things that run the night, you have to return them more or less.

"Delivery? Just send it to Peach Blossom Village. ”

The boss looked at Zhu Hongyu, it was like a golden pimple, it was too late to flatter and please, what was this little thing.

"Send, Nizi's things must be sent! Where to send it? ”

"When will it arrive?"

"It'll be there in three days."

Zhu Hongyu thought about it, Runye should have no opinion, after all, she will move out soon. Runye's attitude towards her now ...... It's weird. That look, in particular, is complicated. Wouldn't it be a little boring?

"Three days later, send me the clay pot to the gate of Sanguan Temple."

Zhu Hongyu said, gave the one tael of silver in his hand to Boss Zhou, and then said: "There are still two taels of silver, and the balance will be settled when you send them over." ”

After leaving the ceramic shop, Zhu Hongyu felt empty in her stomach, so she ate a bowl of mixed noodles in the city, filled her stomach and hurried back to the village.

Back at Sanguan Temple, as soon as Zhu Hongyu entered the house, she saw her sister Amber and her younger brother Zhanao unfolding the cloth brought by Du Yuexiao and comparing it on herself, looking very happy.

Zhu Hongyu stepped forward and asked, "How is it, do you like the cloth?" ”

Amber said in surprise, "Sister, let's make a new dress." You see how soft this cloth is, and it's the season to wear it now. ”

"I asked the merchant to bring cloth, that is, to cut new clothes for you. Amber, you go and call the best tailor in Peach Blossom Village tomorrow, and let's make clothes. ”

Amber really didn't want to work in the pharmacy, so she took a bite to go. Runye called out "Amber" outside the house, and Amber hurried out when she heard it.

Zhu Hongyu looked at Zhan Ao, standing alone and sitting alone, and the two of them were relatively speechless.

"Didn't show up for class today?" Zhu Hongyu broke the silence first, and Zhan Ao nodded and did not reply again.

"Isn't it bad to do it?"

"Because my husband is sick today, I won't be in class for the next few days."

Zhu Hongyu looked at the messy cloth made by her younger brother and sister, and began to clean it up, rolled the unfolded cloth back, and chose a piece of gray cloth from the eighth master and handed it to her younger brother.

"How about this cloth for you to make clothes?"

Zhan Ao nodded, not daring to look directly into Zhu Hongyu's eyes.

"What's the matter, reading dumb reading?"

Zhan Ao hung his head and said in a voice that was only a little louder than the voice of a mosquito: "Sister, I shouldn't misunderstand you and Rundaochang. But...... You're very close, that's not right. ”

"In ancient times, men and women lived in caves, drinking blood, and had no proper clothing. If this is the case, our ancestors were all unruly and shameless people, right? ”

"Every era has its own scale, and these rules are set by people. The relationship between men and women has been treated differently at different times. Besides, I am responsible for the livelihood of a family of three, and you let me keep the so-called 'chastity', who will you raise me or me? ”

"I don't know what your book tells you, but if it says it's always been like this, is it right?"

Zhan Ao didn't dare to look up because of shame, he admitted that he had learned to drill the horns. He just didn't want anyone to hurt his sister again.

"At the beginning, I said that I am in charge of this family, and I will not allow you to dictate to me. If you don't want to be by my side, then leave quickly, and if you can think about it, of course it's best. ”

Zhan Ao couldn't say Zhu Hongyu, and whispered: "Sister, I will never care about your business in the future." ”

"I'm not blaming you." Zhu Hongyu smiled reluctantly, and put the gray cloth of the eighth master beside Zhan Ao, "Since Mr. is sick, let's make clothes together tomorrow." ”

Zhan Ao nodded weakly, not daring to say a word.

Zhu Hongyu turned around and walked out of the house, although she expressed the dissatisfaction in her heart, she was still depressed. Thinking that I had just returned from the city, I would better go to the mountains to take a bath and sleep comfortably......

Early the next morning, Runye took a water bowl to grind cinnabar, and the door was wide open, and few people came in. After the last piece of cinnabar was grinded, I saw Amber enter the door with the village tailor Liu.

"Amber, this is ......" Runya stood inside the pharmacy and called out to Amber.

"Master, this is Sister Liu who was called by my sister to cut her clothes."

Runye pursed her lips and didn't speak. After a while, Zhu Hongyu came out of the room, holding a brush in her hand, and saw the tailor coming, and asked Amber to call the tailor to the living room, and she jumped to the pharmacy.

"You're going to make new clothes for your younger siblings?" Runye asked softly.

"Yes, the pharmacy owner brought some good cloth, light and soft, of course it is going to be cut and made into clothes."

Runye didn't speak, and continued to fiddle with cinnabar. Zhu Hongyu saw that Runye didn't speak, and she really wanted to laugh.

"Dao Chief, I have a question."

"Say."

Runye stopped and wiped the cinnabar off his hands with cotton paper on the side.

"Why do Taoist priests wear cyan clothes?"

"Cultivation is to become an immortal and live forever. The meaning of the cyan lord's immortality. ”

"The Taoist chief knows that the cloth that the merchant brought has two pure blue horses, which I specifically asked for from him."

Runye didn't speak, but the smile between his eyebrows couldn't be hidden.

He thought that Zhu Hongyu didn't care about him at all, only cared about her younger brothers and sisters, and was just using him and not attaching to him. Now it seems to be quite a heart. As long as Zhu Hongyu has a heart, he will be happy, and it doesn't matter what Zhu Hongyu thinks of him in his heart.

"Oh."

"That'...... Let's make a decision. ”

"There's not much fabric, just make clothes for yourself, I don't lack anything."

"Oh, can Dao Ye have a light?"

Runye can't hold on, Zhu Hongyu's left sentence is a sentence of Taoism and a right sentence to appreciate the light, and then let Zhu Hongyu say it, but he doesn't understand the amorous feelings.

"Okay, good, you can do the delayed work."

"No problem."

Zhu Hongyu said, and took Runye to the guest hall, and Sister Liu had already measured the size of Amber, and Zhan Ao was second.

When Sister Liu saw Zhu Hongyu coming, she asked, "Nizi, what styles of clothes do you have?" ”

Zhu Hongyu glanced at Runye, and then said, "I have four variegated cloths and two cyan cloths here." Is it enough for four people to make clothes? ”

"The clothes are thin this summer, so I don't need much fabric."

Sister Liu measured the size of the amber, and Zhu Hongyu was a little embarrassed.

"Let's talk about the style they want."

Amber loves beauty and has long had her favorite clothes.

"Sister Liu, I want a pipa sleeve shirt and a red pleated skirt underneath. It's even better if there are some small flowers on your clothes. ”

"Okay, okay!"

Zhan Ao thought for a while and said, "Make a gray straight body with straight sleeves." If there is any remaining fabric, make another pair of pants. Hit another Yingluo. ”

Zhu Hongyu counted that she didn't have any suitable clothes, and said: "For the rest of the fabric, make me a pair of narrow-mouth pants, with a light undershirt and narrow sleeves." If there is still variegated fabric left, make a light skirt. ”

After Amber finished measuring her figure, Runye was dragged by Zhu Hongyu to Sister Liu to measure her size.

Zhu Hongyu saw that Runye was embarrassed to say the style, so she hurriedly accosted her: "Dao Ye will appreciate your face again?" ”

Runye was cautious, not daring to show half of his overjoyed clarity, and said, "Make a Delo, make a wide-sleeved robe." ”

"Good! No problem! ”

The four people finished measuring the size and also wrote down the requirements. Tailor Liu called Zhu Hongyu aside.

"Nizi, it's not cheap to make clothes, who pays for all this money?"

Zhu Hongyu looked at Sister Liu, puzzled.

"Of course I'm paying."

"Okay, then I'll do the math for you, this master's robe and Deluo charge one dollar and thirty wen. Dero is not easy to do, it takes some effort. Thou shalt receive one penny for thy brother's garments, and if there is any fabric left, thirty denarii for each piece. Your sister's pleated skirt takes a lot of work, and if it costs a penny, I will charge twenty cents for the upper skirt. ”

Zhu Hongyu said secretly, this tailor is really the best tailor in Peach Blossom Village, and the fees are about the same as those in the city.

"In other words, depending on the finished product, I will give you at least three dollars and fifty wen?"

"Yes, girl, do you want to do it separately? Or make some light and simple clothes. ”

How much is Zhu Hongyu, this is quite cheap.

"No, you can make it with the best handwork, especially the clothes that this Taoist master wants, which need to be made the best. I'll fetch you three pieces of silver now, and I'll give you the rest when you've got your clothes ready and send them over." How is it? ”

Sister Liu's eyes were a little puzzled, but after following Zhu Hongyu to take out the silver from the guest room, she smiled.

Busy asked, "Girl, what kind of business have you been doing lately?" How to make money? ”

"It's all the money that my father and mother left and buried in the ground, and I found it when I was cleaning up the house a few days ago."
